PolaRITE™ III

The MPC-3x and 4x are three and four channel all fiber polarization controllers packaged in a low profile 0.63 inch high enclosure suitable for mounting on a PCB.

The all fiber design is inherently low loss and has minimal activation loss. Operation is stable over a wide range of temperatures (-25 to 80 degrees Celsius). The device is controlled by analog control voltages.
